Amid Twitter reports and message board posts claiming that Indiana University sophomore forward Hanner Mosquera-Perea has been spotted recently in a walking boot, Indiana moved quickly to quell any talk of serious injury.

A program spokesman told the Star that Mosquera-Perea is wearing a walking boot away from practice, emphasizing that the boot is "precautionary" and that the 6-foot-9 sophomore is still able to participate fully in practice.
